Welcome from the Department Chair

The Department of Art and Art History offers degrees in Studio Art, Digital Arts and Art History. We offer a range of classes and experiences that teach students about the importance of art-making, its implications, its history and its potential. This covers everything from ancient Roman Pottery to 3D printing with infinite tangents. Our curriculum is in a constant state of flux as we respond to what is happening in the world around us. We use lecture and seminar rooms; studio facilities for Printmaking, Photography, Sculpture, Ceramics Painting and Drawing; computer labs for Graphic Design and Digital Arts; and gallery and exhibition spaces to provide the students what they need to generate ideas and create solutions. Read more>
